Pilaster and Bracket details of the Garbhagriha Public Deposited

Seen here are the pilaster and bracket details of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) entrance. The inner face of the pilaster has a painting of a doorkeeper, and the original surface, probably in stone, is covered entirely in meenakari (enamel) goldwork. The lalatbimba (lintel) has a figure of Jain Tirthankara. The use of gold embossing on the doorway is remarkable. It sets apart the garbhagriha from other parts of the temple interior.
